Tough to Hit
The Braves bullpen has been much harder to hit than their starters this season, coming into today with a .248 batting average allowed vs. .272 for the starters. They followed up a good but short start by Cormier with 3 1/3 hitless innings, just allowing a walk while striking out three. The strikeouts are a big reason for the low batting average allowed by the pen, 7.3 per 9 by the pen versus 6.3 for the starters. They send the Phillies to their third straight loss, 5-1.
